wl12xx: AP mode - workaround for FW bug on station remove
Sometimes an event indicating station removal is not sent up by firmware. We work around this by always indicating success in when a wait for the event timeouts. Temporary workaround until a FW fix is introduced. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Reviewed-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
